[Although Duke Cheverton is strong, he can't face off the Eighth Finger's trump card all alone. He'd die and if he returns as an undead, we're all fucked in more ways than one.

Hence why I need the Second and Fourth swords too.]

Evan stretched his body and yawned loudly before continuing.

[If another one of the Ten Swordsmen can come then it'd be better. That way each person has one Death Knight to deal with.

Or…not because my plan relies on the Second Sword and Ralphie not showing themselves until the Eighth finger's trump card shows up.

Things are looking hard for the Duke.]

"Mind detailing out your plan for u-me?"

In response to Laurene's question where she nearly slipped up, Evan began listing out all the parties involved.

From getting the Adventurers guild, the Mages of Kasteblum, the Church of Artemisia, the Knights of Cheverton and hopefully the units of the army under the Ralphie and the Second Sword.

[This sounds like a bit too much battle power, but it's necessary.

Oh, and Liz comes into the mix too.]

"Liz?"

[Your bestie, Eliza.

She has a skill that can counter the Eighth Finger's domain skill, but she's gonna need the help of the church's paladins to match up to the dude, he's at least 150 levels higher than she is, after all.

Her skill is capable of preventing most of our guys from turning into undead while keeping them alive for as long as possible.]

He then went on to explain how he intends for Duke Cheverton to take out the Dullahan King, and how he predicts the Eighth Finger would show up after that happens, effectively tripling the number of undead they have to face, with the Demonic Hand Executive bringing out multiple undead with levels close to 400.

[Then there's the trump card. This is the reason I would have honestly hoped for Finley to come over.

It's an Undead #(nf*BE%^-oh fuck.]

​ Evan cursed before asking Artemisia why his trump card's name could not be said, only to be told that he had a lower 'Index' than the creature and that the Eighth Finger and his contracted Demon are the only ones on Aidos besides him, who know about said creature's existence.

[Index of what, though?

Huh? A natural law index?

It doesn't want its existence to be known so I can't say anything because I have a lower index?]

After the weird conversation that Evan had with the being they could neither see nor sense, he then turned back to Laurene and said that they'd see the Eighth Finger's trump card eventually when the creature shows up.

[Oh yeah, he also has Demonic Fusion too!

That's another thing that we need to note. It's kind of like Demonic Possession, but unlike that one where the two entities still have separate consciousness, this one creates an entirely new consciousness consisting of the two entities who fused to-

Huh? Liz? Are you done with the strays? Did you level up?]

While Evan was talking, the boy's eyes caught sight of someone else and cut his words short in favour of speaking to that person.

['One question at a time. I'm done with the strays and I only levelled up by one so I'm level 189 now.'

Better than nothing. Anyway, Come say hi to Laurene.]

The boy then dragged the arm of the person he was speaking to, Eliza, towards himself and into the camera's capture range.

['I can walk just fine, though.']

After chiding Evan a bit, the battle priestess greeted her friend, who pointed out that she still had the blood of some weird creature on her cheek.

This was something that Evan took upon himself to wipe off while making a snide remark which caused Eliza to flick his forehead in response, but the boy caught her hand midway and pulled it towards the side of his face while checking if she still had any bloodstain on her.

However, to Pride who walked in their direction after discussing something with this viscount, it looked like the two had gotten lost in their own world, again.

['Can you guys, like NOT, do this right now?'

Not do what?

'Look at yourselves and ask me that again.']

The high demon's words prompted Evan to notice that one of his hands was currently on Eliza's cheek while her hand was pretty close to his face and from afar, it probably looked like they were holding each other's faces.

However, Evan only shrugged his shoulders and replied.

[So what? It's just Laurene.

Besides, it's better if she knows that I'm after her best friend sooner than later.]

His words were met with a light knock on the head from Eliza who walked away immediately after, perhaps out of embarrassment.

"Evan, we're gonna have a talk about this later."

[Hmm? No problem.

We're gonna have a talk about Arnold too.]

Evan ignored the flinching Laurene and readjusted himself on his seat before asking.

[Liz told me that you wanted to recreate Venus. How's that been going?

Recreating the weapon of the previous Fourth Hero doesn't seem like an easy task. I myself have given up on the previous Second's weapon. I'd just stick with the Vanquisher weapon series.

Would you even be able to use Venus if you remake it?

The difference in power between her and you is pretty much like Heaven and Earth.]

Laurene recomposed herself and replied without a change in her expression, and then summoned the magic catalyst she had gone to complete in the Nepte Province.

"I've already recreated it.

One of her residences had the core of the original stored in it."

[You found one of her residences?! How did you do that? Comparing the locations on the maps is a lot of stress.

I only found one so far and it's in Wolfen.

So, I'm gonna have to go over to the Great Eastern Empire and join them when they move in on Wolfen.]

"Wait…what?"

Laurene's question of surprise made Evan realize he had inadvertently spilt the Great Eastern Empire's plans.

[Don't worry too much about that, just know that one of the previous Second's residences is near Wolfen's capital and the Great Eastern Empire wants it so I'm gonna go with them to get it.

I mean, they wouldn't be able to open the damn thing without me, after all.]

"And how do you know that they want it?"

[Don't worry about it.

Oh, I also met the First Star of the Seven Star Generals too.]
